on my window bringing back sweet memories.. That's where I got my inspiration from, sig turned out a bit differently though. Not as good as I hoped, but thought it was worth some positive constructive feedback (or negative, as long as I can do something with it :love:)

Ohh we have tons of lovely sigs today!

1. Text

I think you can do such a better job. I'm not sure why you chose Italic font, I'm generally not too fond of it, nor in your case it makes the sig any better. When I have a sentence I usually make one word bigger or slightly in different font so I can put some emphasis on it. If I were you I'd write "I can't stand the" in small round letters and "Rain" in a bigger, stylish font.

2. Lighting

I'm not even good at it myself, but I love what you did. Especially around his back. It really shows he's happy the rain has stopped. I'm not sure if I like how you extended the white part all the way to the top though, I'd much prefer to see some clouds and some softer light as (more of a) extension from the light source from middle-bottom.

3.

I kind of like the beam of light thing he's holding. Though the thing at bottom right bothers me. Its kind of bright. I'd prefer it if it wasn't there.

1.It's not an italic font, I skewed it italic, because I thought that would look better.
2.The reason the light is coming all the way from the top is because there's a strange line going over the clouds that messes up the stock
3. fixed :)

i like the new edited version
i think you should tone down the lights a little and fix the right side of the sig where one of his figers is below the light while the other two are above? who knows you might have done that on purpose
but i dont really like the text location wise
flow and depth are both good to go

That's to make it look like it's going through his fingers. Text has always been a killer for me, with 1 word it's not so hard, but with a whole sentence.. It really is. Wouldn't know where to place it or what font to use.

Omg my eyes haha, yeah it's a bit too bright bro. I do like the concept of the sig though.

Even though it's already been said, your text is killing your focal. I would stick with somethin simple, like an Arial or any type of Sans Serif font. Maybe grab a light blue color from your sky, or a meduim shade of gray. I'd experiement with those two color schemes.

Personally i'd take one word and elaborate on it, make it stand out and flow. Like elaborating on "stand."

To the top-left of his hand in the right corner there's something above the cloud, but It looks really out of place. Looks really unnatural. Then you have what appears to be a pen tool line going throug his hand. Personally I'm not really feeling it being there. I don't have much of a suggestion for it, so I hate to criticize (in a sense) it without giving a suggestion. Maybe having the pen tool wrapping around his arms? Like it's traveling up his arms? Not too sure myself, sorry.

All in all I like it. I really liked the idea, just a little bright and a few things here and there that need tweaking, mainly text. Regardless, still a good job with it and it definately reminds me of those warm sunny summer days. Good job <3
